Pretty Tasty is about connecting Tidewater's creative community. More the case every day, there are great people in the area doing great things and promoting culture in these growing cities of ours. The idea is simple, but its success will be in the people who use it. As such, the shape of Pretty Tasty will undoubtedly evolve in the coming weeks, months, and years. To get us started, though, let me share a few of the things we were thinking of when we decided to build this site...
- Art shows, exhibitions, and gallery openings.
- Speakers and events (AIGA, Ad Club, and more).
- Sharing great work (websites, print, ad campaigns, etc.)
- Music shows and reviews.
- Posting work for feedback.
- Getting help with technical, design, and other problems.
- Employment Opportunities.
- Great press and noteworthy articles (Online, Pilot, Portfolio, Downtowner, etc.)
- Suggest times, locations, and/or events for gatherings.
- Insert your ideas here
Of course, Pretty Tasty is rooted in and in support of the Tidewater community, but it goes without saying that we should look outside as much as we look inside our community to broaden our horizons and further our success. It appears I've just taken a turn towards the soap box, so let me wrap this up. I cannot stress this enough...
The success of Pretty Tasty is completely dependent on your involvement.
By far, the best thing you can do to contribute to the succcess of Pretty Tasty (and the creative community in general) is to participate. Speak up and share. Post to the board and the calendar often. Maybe tell a friend or two. Make Pretty Tasty part of your daily routine. You'll be amazed to see just how much this area and this community have to offer, and it grows every day.

hello all! thanks for setting this up team GROW. we love you.
few suggestions:
-it's called pretty tasty and you employ joe. where the heck is the awesome mark/illustration to go with the header?
-and once you have said mark, how about a favicon?
-how about an option in the profile to state what you do in relationship to the industry? i.e. designer, programmer, etc.
this could then be displayed somewhere around the avatar. or not.
-is it just me or does it say 'test category' above the forum topics?
anyway, what do i know?
<3

I am a designer who specializes mostly in print but have dabbled a little with web development and I want to learn more. I am a creative director at a (fast food) of print and publishing but still like good creative.
About my Avatar-That is a character from the show HR puffnstuf that was on tv back in the day around 69-and the early 70's-no influence just thought it was funny.

cool - well good to meet ya. i guess amber had a good idea with the into thread so you could post over there, too. the pffnstuf character reminds me of a cross between ernie (from bert and ernie) and a mcdonalds character.
